La Comida

I’m so happy that this still exists. Even though it’s in another town I feel the same nostalgic way that I did as a child whenever I come here. The chairs, the cups, the salsa same as it ever was… 100 stars la comida please come back to my town.

absolutely loved it. our local la comidas closed 15 years ago and I miss it. so visiting the last one was such a treat.
the restaurant was clean and the staff was fantastic.
I had the super burrito and it was just as good as always.
we drove 14hrs to watch the seahawks play the 49ers. and eat at la comidas.
really the restaurant was full of great young people and friendly.

Haven't had La Comida in almost 30 years because they left my city but found them in Chico. Oh my gosh. Was not disappointed

Been coming here since I was little. Always satisfied. Fast service. Great prices.

I bought the #2 dish for take out. They offered me chips while I waited. It's a very friendly atmosphere and the customer service was great.

La Comida always screws up order to go. it never fail. They have lost my business of going on and off for 20 plus years. I paid over $45 and this place couldn’t even add sour cream or ranch I paid for! I gave them another chance after screwing up previous to go order. There is better options and quality for the price in Chico. I am angry I spent this much money here and paid for basically beans lettuce on tortilla with skimpy amount of chicken. barely amount any cheese. And one of the girls who was making orders was gossiping about customers. No wonder why my order got messed up.

I found you on a nostalgia Google Street view tour of beloved Chico! I am so plussed to find that you are still here in the same location 40+ years later! Best Mexican at reasonable $ ever! I wish I was within reach of you now! Love you!

Went here for dinner, got carry out. Placed the order in the restaurant and drove home, less than 5 minutes away and the food wasn't even room temperature. The Texas Taco had solidified greese and the cheese on everything was melted BUT it was hard and cold like it had all been melted a while ago. The side of refried beans had a weird taste to them also.

I'm not sure I can give this place an unbiased review because I have been coming to La Comida since I was young. It was our lunch destination after church most Sundays and definitely the.only perk about that day. My Nana enjoyed a friendship with Mr. Pavis the founder of this establishment. Now La Comida became the place to go during our high school ( broke as a joke) years and sometimes a friend would be lucky enough to be hired . When closing the restaurant, sometimes we'd stay,loiter around ( help out????) and eventually someone would sing into the microphone. Yes, there's memories that have nothing to do with reviewing the food ( Paradise Senior High class of 1989).
2022- finally, as I've recently gone in for some " comfort" food, I was reminded that there's been a change of ownership and other things as well. The point of sale had a suggestion tip value which I added my own custom tip, in surprise. Also, the cold tostada I ordered was paired with warm beans and rice. Typically this is in box #2 so that my lettuce doesn't get warm, wilty. I haven't decided if this error matters. I can always correct it by requesting my order be boxed differently.

Price and food both amazing. These guys have been here like 30 years, and still great food!
